I just made sure the brake fluid reservoir was full, loosened the bleeder valve, let it bleed out, and tightened the bleeder valve. No pumping and nobody pumping the clutch. It works perfectly. If you have fluid in the reservoir, gravity will keep the fluid flowing out and the air from coming in.




Ding Ding! We have a winner in my book!

Gravity will bleed this slave on its own but to be fair you have to pump the pedal after the first bleed, maybe drive it around and then bleed it again to get any possible trapped bubbles.
When the slave is relaxed (no foot on the pedal) the inner chamber is at its smallest and it isn't that likely to trap much air.
